"Honey, we had a great hunt, jumped three big chuckar covys, had a lot of shooting, and we don't have to clean any birds." That is a dierct quote from me to my wife on Thursday after my 73 y/o boyhood friend and I went to a great chuckar spot.

My lead black skinner in the camp in South Africa, Telling the landowner the skinning shed drain was backed up:
"When Jim is here our drains are always clogged with blood."
John Peyton's quote in my personal tag line is still my favorite!

From my brother to my son, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take." When I mentioned that I didn't take a shot, one of the other guys in camp said "You gotta put some lead in the air." KC
Wind in my hair, Sun on my face, I gazed at the wide open spaces, And I was at home.

Many years ago on my first elk hunting trip one of the old fellows gave me the best advice ever: "You can forget your gun, forget your compass, forget your water, but NEVER forget your toilet paper."
I don't eat anything that didn't have a mother.

if a man speaks, and there isn't a woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

I started deer hunting over 30 years ago at the age of 14 and had never seen a deer gutted out since dad didn't hunt deer. I asked our youth pastor who was from the sticks how to gut a deer. Without missing a beat he said in his southern drawl "just open him up and take everything out". To this day that is the best and most succinct deer field dressing instructions I have ever come across.

While hunting in a very hard to draw area on a really cold day, I was approached by the game deputy while I was right in the middle of taking a dump. Deputy says he needed to see my license. I told him if he would wait a minute, I'd get him the paperwork.

A guy I know was sitting on the lake shore holding a fishing pole when the fish warden showed up and asked to see his license. The guy says he doesn't need a license because he wasn't fishing he was just holding the pole for a friend till he got back
The warden asked him if that was a line attached to the pole running out into the water? He answered yes.
Then the warden asked if there is a hook on that line? The guy says of course.
And then the warden asked if there is any bait on that hook? The guy says I think so.
And the warden says "around here we call that fishing".,,,

Sounds like what I told my friend 30 years ago when he killed his first deer, he called and wanted to know what to do. I said " Take all the stuff on the inside, and put it on the outside" KC

Got checked by a warden in the parking area of a state park while pheasant hunting. As he was looking at our licenses the dog takes a dump in the middle of the parking lot.
Warden: “Are you gonna pick that up?”
Dog’s owner: “No, you can have it”

“Open the action on your rifle so I can see where I'm going,” said by a grouchy old friend of mine to a new hunter who was careless where his rifle pointed.
Posted some time in the past but I like it and our family repeats it when anyone gets careless.

A friend's grandfather who was from the Deep South, poor Mississippi delta farmer. Guy was full of it, funny as hell and tougher than nails. He would always say: "When it's too tough for you, it's just right for me."
Not specifically hunting oriented, but said it in any situation when someone started bitchin.
